In different copies various publishers' names appear on the titlepages which are otherwise printed from one setting up of the type. The book was entered in the Stationers' Register to John Harison and George Bishop, and a certain number of copies were printed for each. But copies also occur bearing the names of Lucas Harison and John Hunne. Copies are very frequently made up of the separate parts printed for different stationers. The printer was no doubt Bynneman.

R8 and 218 in second alphabet blank. Wanting the two leaves inserted in sig. *, and *6, also 2G8 (? blank). This edition is made up of earlier editions of both parts; the 'Odessey' is also inserted between the new title-sheet and the Iliad' instead of following the latter. The title-sheet contains, engraved titlepage, with engraved portrait of the translator on the verso; engraved memorial to Prince Henry on second leaf. (In some copies the engraved titlepage is found without the portrait on verso, and these seem to be the earlier impressions.) This sheet takes the place of the original titlepage (c. 1612-13) and the dedicatory verses to Sir Edward Philips found in some copies of the original issue. Dedicatory verses to Prince Henry, signed by the translator. Anagram on Prince Henry. Verses to Queen Anne, signed. Verses to Viscounts Cranborne and Rochester and Sir Edward Philips, occupying the two inserted leaves (wanting in the present copy). Verses to the reader (first leaf wanting). Preface. Errata. Twentyfour books of the 'Iliad'. Verses to the Duke of Lenox, the Lord Chancellor, Earl of Salisbury, Earl of Suffolk, Earl of Northampton, Earl of Arundell, Earl of Pembroke, Earl of Montgomerie, Lord Lisle, Countess of Montgomerie, Lady Wrothe, Countess of Bedford, Earl of Southampton, Earl of Sussex, the Lord Warden, and Sir Thomas Howard, signed at the end. The edition of the 'Odessey' had appeared in 1614, with an engraved title 'Homer's Odysses. Translated according to ye Greeke. By Geo: Chapman, Imprinted at London by Rich: Field, for Nathaniell Butter'. This and the blank leaf preceding it have been cancelled in the present as in most other copies of the collected edition. In some copies, e.g. in that in the Cambridge University Library, is found a printed titlepage: Homers Odesses. Translated According to the Greeke. By George Chapman. [Motto.] London, Printed for Nathaniel Butter'. Epistle dedicatory in verse and prose to Robert, Earl of Somerset. Translations of Greek epigrams. Twenty-four books of the 'Odessey' with a few verses at the end. The present which was the first collected edition appeared about 1616. It seems to be generally assumed that the collected edition of 1616 contained, not the 1612-13 'Iliad', but a reprint. Copies in this state are found in the Cambridge University Library and the British Museum (G. 8837). The reprint, however, which appears in these copies must be of considerably later date, as is evident from the constant use of 'v' medially. It was probably printed about 1640. Two of the woodcut figures used as head-pieces were so used (with the same break in the St Francis) in a book printed, probably by T. Harper, in 1641 (namely the reprint of 'The Devil is an Ass' found in some copies of the second volume of Ben Jonson's works, q.v.). Evidently the stock of the 'Iliad' gave out before the 'Odessey' and the first part of the volume had in consequence to be reprinted. Probably therefore the majority of copies of Chapman's 'Homer' described as being of the edition of 1616 were not in reality issued till some twenty years later. BM 828. HORMANUS, HADRIANUS JULIUS.

At the foot of f. 18' is the subscription 'Surrey', applying to the foregoing poems. So again at the foot of f. 49 is the subscription 'T. Wyate the elder', while f. 50 is headed 'Songes and Sonettes of vncertain auctours'. Again on f. 113 occurs the heading 'Songes written by N. G.' (i.e. Nicholas Grimald, the probable editor), while at the end of the poems the initials N. G. are also found. The 'Songs of uncertain Authors' are supposed to include poems by Thomas Lord Vaux, Sir Francis Bryan, John Heywood, Thomas Churchyard, and Edward Somerset. This is the second edition, the first, of which only one copy is known, having appeared on June 5 of the same year. In the second edition thirty poems by Grimald which appeared in the first are replaced by an additional thirty-nine poems by uncertain authors; some of the other matter is also rearranged. The present copy differs throughout from that in the BM, though the date in both is identical, the type having apparently been set up in duplicate. On the verso of the last leaf are some verses in an English hand of the sixteenth or early seventeenth century.
